The figure was clouded in bruised violet and white smoke and seemed to be running after the receding sun in the prairie. Silent as a ghost it move above the ground, gently humming a piercingly haunting melody to lost acquaintances. But the tune was not devoid of happiness for it seemed to sing of renewed hope for the future, a bittersweet combination of notes. Above the figure the dark blue sky was speckled with a dusting of pale stars and the sky remained cloudless except for tiny puff dotting the sky in the distance. Finally the whisp did come to a stop on a fallen old tree, standing to watch the last of the bright rays die. Her wings expanded to capture the cool breeze and she raised her dainty nose into the air to sniff at the sweet smell of dry grass. Tired and at peace she lay down on the fallen tree, curling her tail around her body and tucking her wings about her sleek body. Swalleena lay her head upon her paws and let her green eyes gaze upon the beauty of the land, enraptured by the sight that greeted her. "If only everything in life could be as simple," she mused. "Alas, no such luck."

Erin’s mind swirled with ideas and thoughts of love and kindness. She was in a world where butterflies were her size and she was just one wolf. She sighed, contented as the colours of this new world swirled around her. The flowers flew with transparent wings and their leaves helped them to direct themselves. Almost like the tail of a Keiyou when it flew. Above her she could see the branches of trees reaching high, almost touching the obsidian sky.

Despite it been night light was ever present, the flying flowers glowed dully while mushrooms sparkled when you neared them. She wished she could approach them and play around but she had not control. She had no control over her body or what it was doing. She only had control over what she saw and this was only limited by the imagination.

Lexi on the other hand was carrying her and her sister steadily forward. It was cold here but not as cold as back home on the pack lands. Why they had come as far away from it as they had still confused Lexi. She just remembered walking out of boredom and now they were here. It was extremely dry and quite windy. The long grass around them was almost bent double and dust hit them. She didn’t like this place as much but at least it wasn’t as freezing as home.

Erin came out of her fantasy world as her body stopped. The other body grew next to her and her sister suddenly appeared, the night sky faded to be replaced with sunset and all the flying flowers and giant butterflys flew away.

“Bye-bye flowers” she said, savouring the last few moments.
“Sometimes I wonder if you are normal Air” Lexi said chuckling as she sniffed at the grass.
“Lex have you looked at me lately?” The both giggled at that, it was definitely true that they were not normal.

Lexi was the one who noticed the other wolf first, when Erin noticed her they made a mutual decision to approach her. They had never seen anything like her. She seemed like a Keiyou... but she was different.

“Hello” Erin said full of enthusiasm. Her sister stood silently, watching.

[atrb=background,http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd415/Somatra1/sback-6.jpg] Swalleena was woken from her serious contemplation upon hearing a greeting at her back. Jumping in alarm she fell of the fallen tree, turning into a puff of smoke to briefly disappear into the falling night. Twirling around the log the bruised violet and gray mist drifted nearer to the odd wolf, of was it odd pair of a wolf? She had never in all her travels come across such an peculiar phenomenon. In fact she wasn't quite sure how to react and so she remained suspended for a couple of seconds simply accepting the bizarre reality that she now faced. "Good-d-d-ay...Oh, pardon my manners its just that...well you quite startled me that is all." Despite the unusual arrangement the pair was striking and in fact the two wolves were cute little buggers. She now supposed she was quite in luck to be graced with the presence of this rare sight and smiled somewhat more warmly as she finally emerged from her shape form. Emerald green eyes that were flecked with cold contemplated the two with a kind look "Now young ones, seems a it late for you to be out, from what pack do you come from? My name is Swalleena, Nurse for the Children and you needn't fear me." Despite her ghostly exterior the whisp was quite kind hearted and hoped that the two were not lost for she would have a difficult time helping to get them back as she was not quite familiar with the territories being new to the land.

Lexi’s brows raised at the wolf’s comment that they shouldn’t fear her. Now why wouldn’t they need to fear her? She was a whisp, a gifted wolf but a wolf who could easily kill them. It didn’t matter what pack she was from, even if it was a pack that had a peaceful reputation. Just because she cared for her pack didn’t mean she cared for others. Lexi just watched, silently. She would step in if anything took a wrong turn. She was not particularly in the mood for conversing.

“We were just exploring” Erin’s voice showed her own child-like mind, a good match for the other wolf’s description of them. Her deep blue eyes showed her peppiness more than her actions ever could. She enjoyed meeting new people. She enjoyed making friends even more. Her sister was of course a downer to that most of the time but Air didn’t mind, she knew that lex was just like that cause she was protective.

“We come from the Empire, its mighty cold but very nice. We are entertainers. You can guess why” She turned their body in a circle before sitting down in front of Swalleena once more. “Its rather fun, i do the creative stuff and she does the more logical stuff. Im Erin and she is Lexi. Or did i mention that already?” She spoke quite fast, not even Lexi could take it all in.
